Black housing of transducers
If the flow sensor is being installed in the common return flow of two heat systems, e.g. heating and hot water, the
mounting location must be sufficiently separated from the T-piece, that is, at least 10 x DN from the T-piece, so
that the different water temperatures are well-mixed before reaching the sensor.
Following the instructions in the illustrations below, mount the flow sensor horizontally or vertically between two
close-off valves, making sure the arrow on the sensor corresponds to the actual direction of flow.
Mounting considerations
Connection pieces are to be sealed against manipulation.
5Installation for Cooling Applications
When mounting the flow sensor for cooling applications make
sure that the transducers (black housing) are to the side of, or
under, the measuring tube (to prevent accumulation of
condensation water). The flow sensor must always be mounted
in the return flow. The calculator should be mounted on the wall,
for example.
Attention must be paid that the cables connected to the calcu-
lator are laid such that condensation water cannot run along
them and into the calculator. Cable loops should hang under-
neath.
6Starting Up
-Open close-off valves. Check the heating system for leaks and vent thoroughly. After 100 seconds at the
latest the flow sensor will begin to operate.
-When the response threshold has been exceeded and the flow is positive, volume pulses will be generated
as determined by the instrument parameterization.
-Check the measured flow values on the connected calculator for plausibility.
-Vent the system until the flow display on the connected calculator is stable.
-Then affix the user seals on the connections.
6.1 Important Notes
Regulations for the application of meters are to be observed, see Standard EN 1434, part 6! In particular, cavitation
must be avoided.
When installing the flow sensor, make sure to protect against overflow and dripping water
Avoid air pockets
Install any valves or controllers downstream from the
flow sensor
Mounting positions for cooling applications

2015_03_03 6
All technical data specified in the flow sensor data sheet and instructions must be adhered to.
The instrument identification and the seals required for verification of the flow sensor must not be damaged or
removed –otherwise the guarantee and verification of the instrument no longer apply!
Transport of the flow sensor is only permissible in the original packaging.
7Mounting of the Components
7.1 Mounting of the calculator
The housing cover can be opened by pulling the two snap-fit hooks at the base of the calculator (between the cable
glands) towards you.
Before mounting, check to make sure that the cable lengths of the instruments to be connected are correct for the
individual installation situation.
For existing mounting positions an optional adapter panel - meeting EN 1434-2:2007 (D) specifications –is available
which makes it possible for the wall-mounting support to be mounted using standardized drill holes. The centre to
centre drill hole separation for the wall-mounting unit and direct screw mounting is 119 mm.
With wall-mounting support
Direct screw mounting
With commonly available
mounting rail
Attention
After the temperature sensors and flow meter have been connected the calculator must be sealed against
manipulation. Please apply the enclosed self-lock seals and the seal- wires at the holes provided on the housing
cover.
8Connection of the components
8.1 Connection of the temperature sensors
Important
First mount the temperature sensors and then start running of the flow meter. This way unnecessary error
messages can be avoided.
-Loosen two cable glands and glide them over the sensor cables. Remove the two blind plugs from the cable
gland openings.
-Feed the temperature sensor cables through the appropriate openings of the cable glands into the terminal
box.
-Clamp the wires as shown in the illustrations:

2015_03_03 7
Connection 2-wire-system
Connection 4-wire-system
Cables that are too long should not be rolled up tightly into an ‘air-core coil’. The cables should either be laid out
disordered, or rolled up loosely into a wide coil which can be turned and tied into an ‘8’.
At delivery, the display shows ‘ERR 03’ until temperature sensors have been attached. This message disappears as
soon as temperature sensors have been connected and the first measurement is carried out (every 30 seconds with
flow, 10 minutes without flow).
Recognition of switched temperature sensors is only activated for meters which are purely heat meters or cooling
meters. Recognition of switched sensors is not possible for dual-purpose heat/cooling meters.
The calculator connections have been designed to meet the valid standard EN 1434-2. All terminal strips have been
labelled according to this standard.
The terminal strips are located under the cover of the calculator housing.
9Start of Operation
-Slowly open the shut-off valves.
-Check that there are no leaks.
Check the following points:
-Are all the shut-off valves open?
-Is the meter of the right size?
-Is the heating (heating/cooling) system clear (dirt filters not clogged)?
-Does the directional arrow on the flow sensor match the actual direction of flow?
-Is a flow volume displayed?
-Is a plausible temperature difference displayed?
When the meter is functioning properly, attach the seals to the calculator, the temperature sensors and the flow
sensor (required to protect against manipulation).
10 Display
The calculator has a liquid crystal display with 8 digits and special characters. The values that can be shown are
divided into three display loops. All data is retrieved using the push button next to the display.
At the start you are automatically in the main loop (1st level). By pressing the push-button longer than
4 seconds you change to the next display loop. Keep the push-button pressed until you reach the desired
information loop. By pressing the push-button briefly you can scan all the information within a loop.After 1 minute
of non-use of the push-button, the display automatically returns to the main loop.

13 Additional Interfaces and Power Supply
13.1 Connection of additional interfaces and power supply
The following are options that the calculator can be equipped with at the factory (state when ordering) and will
vary depending on the individual calculator.
-Feed the cable to be connected (cable diameter 3.5 to 6.5 mm) through an opening on the bottom edge of
the calculator housing into the space containing the terminal strips.
-Loosen a cable gland and glide it over the cable (cable diameter 3.5 to 6.5 mm). Remove the blind plug in
the cable gland opening.
-Feed the cable of the through the opening into the terminal box.
-The terminal clamps are designed to fit strands with ends with a cross-section of 0.5 –1.5 mm2.
-Clamp on the cable according to the following illustrations that apply depending on the interface.
Connection of M-Bus
Connection of pulse
outputs or inputs
Connection of pulse
outputs heat/cooling
Connection of power
pack
Polarity is not important
for these connections so
the wires can be clamped
arbitrarily.
Depending on the option,
there are two additional
pulse inputs
(IN 2 and IN 3) for further
meters or two pulse
outputs (OUT 1 and OUT
2) for connection to an
additional system. For
connection of meters with
open collectors attention
must be paid to the
polarity.
For the dual-purpose
heat/cooling meter
version, separate pulse
outputs for heating
energy (OUT 1) and
cooling energy (OUT 2)
are available.
It is strongly
recommended to use only
the manufacturer`s
original power pack.
It is imperative to pay
attention to the polarity.
-Check that the connections are tight.
-Screw the cable glands tight by hand.
13.2 M-Bus (optional)
The M-Bus is a galvanically isolated interface for the transmission of meter data (absolute values).
